it has got to be a firewall or some sort of access restriction policy in windows 8. As it has connected to a new network the default settings would have changed and it is highly probably your wife may have selected the wrong zone settings. If you right click on the network icon on your taskbar and open the network and sharing center it will open a window displaying your current connections. Next to each connection it will tell you the profile which has been associated with that connection such as home network, public network etc. If yours isn't set to home network you should be able to click on it and change it.

Have you tried doing on ipconfig to see whether the shub has given you an ip address and it is set as your default gateway?
